ALL WAS HARMONY.
Republican State Committee Re
elects Its Officers.
Expected Opposition to Chairman
Brookfield Did Not Materialize.
Many Prominent Politicians at the
Fifth Avenue Hotel.
The meeting of the Republican Btate
Committee to-day at the Fifth Avenue
Hotel fur the purpose of reorganiza
tion proved to be ithi.Ii lean interesting
In Its character than was anticipated.
All the old officers were re-elected
without change, William Brookfield.
Chairman; John S. Kenyon, Secretary;
Oen. Samuel Thomas. Treasurer, and
Col. Reuben L.. Fox, Chief Clerk, in ac
cordance with a cut and dried arrange
ment quite In keeping with the usual
tactics of Boss I'lalt, whose Influence
was very perceptible despite his absence
In Boston.
The opposition to Chairman Brook
field's re-election did not develop and the
only signs of disaffection manliestod
came from the Buffalo contingent, rep
resented by Messrs. Scotchard and I'rban,
Who are stll sore over the recent turning
flown of the Erie Countv delegation at
Albany, in the election of George W.
Dunn aa Clerk of the Assembly.
It was rumored before the meeting
that the Buffalo politicians would renew
their protest against the tactics pursued
by the machine at the meeting to-day,
but the question did not come up, and
all that was heard of the matter was a
little ebullition of feeling on the outside.
When Chairman Brookfield called the
Peeling to order In Parlor DR, at the
Ifth Avenue Hotel, about 1L30 o'clock
this morning, all the members were
present, or were represented by proxies,
with the exception of Charles M. Nevins,
of the Fourth Brooklyn District.
The complete list of those in attendance
Is as fallows :

Nothing was done at the meeting be
yond the election of officers, and it lasted
only half an hour.
Chairman Brookfield will name an Exe
cutive Committee of seventeen members,
and he said after tne meeting that it
would be composed of about the same
men as last year, with Charles W. Hack
ett as Chairman. He will not announce
it for a day or two.
During tne morning the hotel corrl-
Rors were thronged with Republican pol
Iclans from all over the Slate.
Among them were noticed Senators
Buxton, O'Connor. Pureons, Hlgglns and
Kllburne, Oen. Horace Porter, ex-Marshal
I.ouls F. Payne, "Barney" Blglln
and many of the lesser lights.
The meeting for the reorganization of
the State Committee was called this year
in January In accordance with a resolu
tion adopted at the Syracuse Conven
tion m October, instead of immediately
after election, as has been the custom
In previous years.
When the Committee adjourned at
(toon to-day it was decided to meet again
only at the call of the chair.
It will probably get together again
Some time during the next week or two.
when various matters in connection with
Iiruspective legislation and the contest
ng of seats In the ABsemhly and Senate
will come up for discussion.
it was expected that some action
might be taken on those matters at to
day's meeting, but the orders of the boss
It la said, forbid anything but mere
routine business.

WAY STILL BLOCKED.
Tariff Bill Held Baok Again by
Absenco of Demoorata.
Mr. Hoar Presents a New Set of
Inquiries About Mr. Blount.
Senate Votes that When It Adjourn
It Be Till Monday.
(By Aaaoclatad Treat.)
WASHINGTON, Jan. 1 Although the
lack of a quorum blocked the tariff de
bate yesterday, and an order was passed
recalling the absentees, only ninety-eight
members, by actusl count, were on the
floor when the House was called to order
at noon to-day.
The prospect for a j'emocrailc quorum
looked gloomy. Still Col. Ike Hill, the
Democratic whip, expressed the opinion
that a quorum of Democrats was In the
city.
Some communications were laid before
the House, and the Speaker announced
the reappointment of MeSBis. Wheeler,
of Alabama; Breckinridge, of Kentucky,
and Hltt, of Illinois, aa the regents of
the Smithsonian Institute.
Immediately thereafter the fight over
the Hawaiian matter was precipitated
by Mr. Boutelle, of Maine.
Although the Democratic members of
the Ways and Means Committee had
been willing to make arrangement to tie
vote two days, tu-niurrow and Saturday,
to this subject, they decided after the
wasting of the day yesterday, through
the persistency of Mr. Boutelle, to shul
the Hawaiian debate out entirely until
the Tariff bill was disposed of.
Accordingly, when Mr. Boutelle called
up his privileged Hawaiian resolution
this morning, Mr. Mc.MlllIn on behalf of
the Committee ra'sed the question of
consideration, Mr. Boutelle was sarcastic
and Mr. Mc.MlllIn rather contemptuous
in the exchange of shots before the vole
was taken.
By a rising vote or 58 to 124, the House
decided not to consider the resolutions.
The ayes and nays were then demanded.
The Republicans returned to the tac
tics of yesterday, ttnd the Democrats
were again without a quorum of their
own party to take up the Tariff bill.
The House adjourned without accom
plishing any business

REPORT NOT LIKED.

Charities Commissions. Will
Look Into Barron's Death.
Warden O'Rourke Exonerates Drs.
Pittis and Kelly.
He Says They Merely Violated One
of the Rule.
The report of Warden O'Rourke upon
the charges of neglect against Surgeons
J. H. Kelly and Albert 1'lttle, of the
Oouverneur Ilonpltal stuff. In falling to
properly examine Michael Barron, a
printer, of in Cherry street, und take
him to the hospital last Tuesday morn
ing, was delivered to President Porter,
of the Hoar of Charities and Correction,
this morning.
The report tn practically a vindication
of the surgeons, and Is undoubtedly in
tended hb such.
President Porter told an " Evening
World" reporter this morning that he j
wus not satisfied with the report und j
that the Hoard of charities and Correc
tion would make an investigation for It
self. Barron lived with his brother on the
top floor of the tenement-house IN Cherry
street, keeping " ba-.-htl jr's hall."
Monday ntgnt he attended a hull with
a number of friends. The festivities
lasted until tu-urly fi o'clock Tuesduy
morning. Two of his companions hud
drank to excess, and Barron took upon
himself the task of taking them surely
to their home at N Catharine street.
It was still dark when the party
reached the house, but Rarrnn suc
ceeded in getting the men lo their rooms
and started for home. About 6 o'clock
he wus found at the bottom of the
ttalrway In an unconsciout condition b
a tenant who notified Policeman Tnomae
Heaphy, of the Madison street station.
There whm a ho! of blood under the
man's head and blood upon his lips.
The policeman sent in a call to Oouver
neur It' -rii ii I for hxi ambulance. The
surgeon was Dr. Plttls. According to
the policeman the doctor made a superfi
cial examination and went away after
declaring that it was not a ease for the
I ospltal. The man, he said, was merely
in a drunken stupor.
Barron was tubaaqui ntly removed to
the station-house In an express wagon.
Sergt. Brennan sent in another n to
Oouverneur. This time It was I r. ECeliy
who responded. He went through the
same performance tis hts aasoelate and
failed to discover that the man was mor
tally Injured; that his head was broken,
his ilbs fractured, frnements of the boruj
having penetrated the right lung, ana
that one of the knee caps wus dislocated.
"I smelted a strong ndir of liquor on
the man," aays tne doctor In his written
explanation attached with that of Pettis
to Warden O'Rourke's report lo the
Commissioners; "hut his respiration was
finite natural and the pupils of his eyes
were normal."
Dr. Manning, of 7." Madison street.
who was culled Into the station later,
said Harron was suffering from a com
pound fracture of the base of the skull.
Harron died at 6 o'clock in the evening.
Had he received proper treatment Imme
diately upon being discovered in the hall
way It Is possible that his life might
have been saved.
Warden O'Rourke merely aei uses the
surgeons of a violation of a rule requir
ing that alcoholic cases be removed to
the hospital.
Both of the surgeons say they made a
careful examination of Harron. and that
the charge of neglect) therefore, should
not obtain against them.

UMUlted and left for dead, in a lonely
spot In Marlon. Jersey City, last Friday
nights Is hourly gaining physically, she
dues not mend inueh mentally.
This morning Warden Osborne, of the
Jersey t'lty Hospital, asked her;
"How are you feeling?"
"Very, very sick." was the faint reply.
"Do you know me?"
"No." .
MISS BatTOWeilffe has known Warden
Osborne for a long time, and her answer
Is regarded by the doctors an good evi
dence that she has not made much
headway In regaining her mental facul
ties. Thia afternoon, however. Dr. Varlck
sa!d that MIj Barrowcllffe was &" per
cent, better. Her wounds are all healed,
ami in- thought she would lapldly Im
prove mentally.
At noon he tested h. r mt ntally, He
first asked her if she knew hint, und she
readily answered In the affirmative. He
then hell up two lingers and asked her
how many Mngeri he had up. iiid In
answer she put up two ol her own.
Hhe then held up five linger I und asked
her to count them. HlOWly she counted.
"ne two three four five."
After tliHt the doctor asked her if
She knew how she was hurt, but she
slowlj murmured: "I -don't know."
This was B Kreat disappointment lo the
h ipttal authorities and the detective
who his waited const. ,ntly at her Vie.l
slle hoping to gain home detlulte Infor
mation. They still hope, however, thut
when her mind heroines clear, she will
lender effective aid In apprehending her
assailant.

Warden Osoorne said this morning
that the woman who called at the hos
pital yesterday admtted to his wife
that she wus Miss Barrowcllffe s
mother, she was not allowed to see
the patient, Htid returned to tier home In
Brooklyn, faying th.vt she would return
again.
Police Captain Lang mysteriously says
that he . . this woman in Jersey (Tty

morning that ai ss Bsrrowcliff had

some time prior to her assault. .i) the
letters refered to mips Barrowcliff!
birth, and in the greater number she
was asked if she knew her own history.
In case she did not. she was asked to
meet the writer at some place stated in
esch letter.
The police refuse to gl.e any further

It is stated, however, that Miss Borrow

It has been suggested that possibly

to mat t the anonymous writer, und
that a quarrel followed.
The police do not believe Mrs. Barrow
